About EZGO Pre-Medalist Electric Models:
EZGO electric models from 1986.5 through 1994 represent the pre-Medalist era of EZGO golf carts. These vintage electric carts are known for their simple, reliable design and durability. The Medalist series began in mid-1994 (1994.5) with updated styling and features, making these earlier models distinct in their suspension design and components.

Pro Tip: When servicing vintage EZGO electric carts, it's a good opportunity to inspect and service other suspension components, bushings, and mounting hardware that may have deteriorated over the years. Also check battery cables and connections while you're working on the cart.
